Giant bugs. They are bugs or muppets or Serkis Folk, whichever, but all are mad creepy. They have no individuality or intelligence, except possibly a Hive Mind. Considering almost all variants are hostile towards humans, and every single one of them is really ugly, nobody really worries too much about the morality of killing them. While these creatures are very widespread and can be encountered in many different places, the trackless depths of the Hungry Jungle, the barren wastes of the Standard Post-Apocalyptic Setting and the unearthly landscapes of alien worlds are among their most common nesting grounds. Subtropes include: Dreadful Dragonfly Giant Enemy Crab Giant Spider For the Super-Trope of abnormally-sized animals in general, see Animals Not to Scale. This often overlaps with Atrocious Arthropods, as Big Creepy Crawlies are often depicted as hideous and dangerous beings. See also Scary Scorpions, Creepy Centipedes, Creepy Cockroach, Bee Afraid, Wicked Wasps, Moth Menace, Slaying Mantis, Lice Episode and Bug War. If they are from space, they're Insectoid Aliens. If they have a lust for galactic domination, they are a Horde of Alien Locusts. A subset of Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever and Dire Beast. These are especially common in prehistoric settings. Videogames (and Kaiju) seem to love combining this trope and Macabre Moth Motif. Some of them are also Proportionately Ponderous Parasites. Often led by a queen. To some extent, this was once Truth in Television, back in the Carboniferous Period, but only possible due to higher oxygen levels at the time. Such animals lack lungs and breathe, at best, via trachea stuck in the abdomen wrapped in carapace. So ones that get too big can't absorb enough oxygen to survive, and those that get a lot of trachea (centipedes) constantly risk dehydration. The Square-Cube Law also holds them down. These restrictions are downplayed underwater, however. |

The Shadow Hearts series isn't a stranger to this trope. In fact, the giant roach monster (Buggs in the first game, Gregor in both Covenant and From the New World) hold the honor of being the only enemy to appear in every game of the trilogy. Other Big Creepy Crawlies include Zosim (a wasp pupa infected by a parasitic snake), a flesh-eating centipede, large snails that feed on human blood, Megafilaria and Gigafilaria (magic-powered leech-like creatures) and Gatorback/Scorplinus (heavily-armoured scorpions). | |

Guild Wars 2 features several variants of big arthropods, from the merely large to the truly gargantuan. One of the best-known varieties is the "devourer", a twin-tailed scorpion which proliferates throughout the Charr regions; these things can, especially if domesticated, grow as big as a house and can be used as mobile artillery platforms. (Devourer eggs, especially pickled ones, are considered quite the delicacy by Charr.) Sea scorpions (see the Real Life section below) are a common denizen of Tyria's salt-water seas. Overgrown spiders, mosquitoes, wasps and grubs are ubiquitous pests. On the other hand, rangers can tame juvenile spiders and devourers and adopt them as pets/companions. | |

Monster Hunter has its fair share of insectoid monsters (known in-game as "Neopterons.") The small ones mostly serve as minor annoyances at worst, to the point that their bodies usually splatter upon death, meaning no carcass for you to carve parts from, but the really big ones are strong enough to serve as a Boss Battle in their own right. Monster Hunter (2004): Hornetaur are relatively docile beetle-like small monsters that jump and try to stab you with their horns once angered. Vespoids are flying wasp-like monsters that zip around erratically and possess a paralytic sting. In Freedom Unite, they're led by a Vespoid Queen. Monster Hunter 3 (Tri): Bnahabra are similar to Vespoids, but they can also spit a corrosive goop that lowers elemental resistance based on region. Later games toned it down to "just" paralysis. Altaroth are ant-like Neopterons that store items in their stretchy stomachs, then take it back to their nests and vomit it out like bees. Their bodies are even more fragile than most Neopterons; any lethal damage that isn't poison will splatter them. When their bellies are inflated, they'll drop an item upon being killed, depending on what's in them. In Rise, they may leave a corpse to carve, however. Monster Hunter Online: Lightenna is a truck-sized Neopteron exclusive to the Chinese-only MMO Monster Hunter Online that resembles a mix between a grasshopper and a beetle with its big horn. What's notable about it, however, are its wings. It doesn't resemble a grasshopper for nothing; when it rubs its wings together, it can generate an electromagnetic charge, which it can use to generate barriers and charge Hunters, changing who its positive and negatively charged thunder shots will target. The Poikilos subspecies, on the other hand, ditches this gimmick and instead generates Dragon energy using its wings. Monster Hunter 4: The Seltas is a speedy large Neopteron who rams things with his horn; he can also shoot balls of water that reduce your defense. The Seltas Queen, on the other hand, is the Seltas' tank-like female counterpart, who likes to burrow, charge like a Tigrex, and can perform a devastating charged water blast. The Seltas Queen calls Seltas as her minion during battle. He can mount her and shoot Stamina-sapping water blasts like a rotary turret, and his wings allow the very heavy Seltas Queen to fly. Unfortunately for the poor Seltas, the Queen isn't too grateful for his help, as she'll slam him down onto the ground and eat him when she starts running low on stamina, then just call in another one. The two-horned Desert Seltas in 4 Ultimate has it even worse, as the Queen blasts him so hard at the pesky Hunters that he freaking explodes... upon which she'll just yank another Desert Seltas out of nowhere. Notably, their design and concept invokes the image of a Combining Mecha as well as that of a giant bug, which is also reflected in the armors you can craft with their materials. Starting from this game, you can also use one, as part of a weapon, no less! The Insect Glaive is a staff-like weapon that allows you to jump super high in the air, something only one other weapon is capable of (the Lance, and only during its Dash Attack.) However, the other half of the weapon is the Kinsect, a roughly-coconut-sized insect that resides on your arm. You can command it to fly and bite monsters to leech "extracts" from them. Drinking the "extracts" the Kinsect brings back gives you several boost, up to and including boosts to Affinity, a different standard attack chain, the ability to ignore weak monster roars, immunity to some types of knockbacks, and restoring a bit of health. They start out as the weak Mauldrone or Culldrone, but by feeding them Jellies, Ambrosias, and assorted monster parts and materials, you can upgrade their stats and elemental powers to your liking. Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate: Ahtal-Ka is a golden mantis-esque Neopteron who builds a colossal nest out of abandoned materials with her silk, and can pick up objects bigger than she is to swing them around like an Epic Flail. However, this isn't the only notable thing about Ahtal-Ka. You see, she's called the "Empress of Ruins" for a reason. Ahtal-Ka is apparently smart enough to collect abandoned human siege materials, and then, using her silk, she builds a freaking big silk Gundam called the Ahtal-Neset with the siege materials. She then goes on to raid active human fortresses and triple the Ahtal-Neset in size. Since the shinier the specimen, the more likely they are to attract a mate, she's also very interested in shiny objects, which is why you can mine her mecha for the Golden Eggs, Platinum Eggs, Charms and various gems she stores within. |

Prehistoric Park Reimagined: Several animals from prehistoric times that qualify (particularly from the Carboniferous Period) are amongst the lucky animals rescued. Downplayed however in that several of them, particularly the Arthropleura, end up losing their fear factor as a result of their massive size rather than getting their fear factor enhanced by it. | |

Godzilla: The Series: "Where is Thy Sting?": Ts-eh-Go is a massive Kaiju-sized scorpion that turned out to be the First Wave of a secret military project. There's also a swarm of smaller scorpions around the size of a human torso which were created as the Second Wave of the same project after the First Wave proved uncontrollable. Both are disposed of by Godzilla and the episode ends with the revelation that a Third Wave of monster scorpions are currently under development. Zilla Jr. fights a number of other super-sized bugs throughout the series, including giant bees, spiders, cicadas, and mosquitoes. |

In Vectorman 2, Earth is taken over by giant insects mutated by the toxic waste that polluted their environments (and which Orbots like Vectorman were tasked with disposing of by taking to the Sun). These giant insects serve as the game's enemies, and a few of them serve as its bosses. Their leader is the Spider Queen, a giant black widow spider with an exposed brain in her thorax who serves as the game's Final Boss. | |

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate: Ahtal-Ka is a golden mantis-esque Neopteron who builds a colossal nest out of abandoned materials with her silk, and can pick up objects bigger than she is to swing them around like an Epic Flail. However, this isn't the only notable thing about Ahtal-Ka. You see, she's called the "Empress of Ruins" for a reason. Ahtal-Ka is apparently smart enough to collect abandoned human siege materials, and then, using her silk, she builds a freaking big silk Gundam called the Ahtal-Neset with the siege materials. She then goes on to raid active human fortresses and triple the Ahtal-Neset in size. Since the shinier the specimen, the more likely they are to attract a mate, she's also very interested in shiny objects, which is why you can mine her mecha for the Golden Eggs, Platinum Eggs, Charms and various gems she stores within. | |

Kirby: The recurring Bugzzy enemy is a giant stag beetle that attacks with wrestling moves. It also has a counterpart called Hornhead who was introduced in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. Also coming from Triple Deluxe, Queen Sectonia is an Insect Queen who is the Big Bad of the main game. She soon combines herself with the Dreamstalk so she can rule all over Popstar. Her servant Taranza somewhat qualifies as well. It's implied that she wasn't always a wasp, however. In Kirby: Planet Robobot, a clone of her is fought in Meta Knightmare Returns and The True Arena. After she is defeated, she somewhat turns into a spider-like creature resembling her former friend. |

SCP Foundation: SCP-363 ("Not Centipedes"). Under normal circumstances they look like the real life Amazonian giant centipede, which can grow up to a foot in length. However, if it's darker than dusknote darker than 2 lux, to be exact they rapidly grow in size, and can easily grow to at least 30 feet in length and 6 feet in width. And not only that, as it grows it get new body parts, like tentacles and eyes. SCP-1575 ("Venus Statue"). When the water altered by SCP-1575 is drunk by a mammal, parasitic vermin infesting the mammal can start changing into human beings. They usually don't survive, but you can end up with half human/half flea or half human/half tapeworm abominations. |

In Potion Permit, Crownmites, Goldenhorns, and Sandcrawls are beetles almost the size of the Chemist. They have tough exoskeletons only breakable by hammer, with the Goldenhorns' being much tougher. They flip over once their armor is destroyed, making them more vulnerable to attacks. | |

World of Warcraft has a number of notable examples, in addition to various giant spiders, scorpions and the like. The Silithid are a hive-dwelling race with a great deal of internal variation (or possibly several sub-species) to fulfill different roles. The Old God C'Thun transformed some of them into the Aqir. The Aqir empire launched a Bug War to wipe out all non-Aqiraji life, and on their defeat split into two different races, the Qiraji and the Nerubians. The first remained servants of C'Thun, and continued to launch Bug Wars against the rest of Azeroth. The Nerubians left for Northrend where they created an underground empire, which was destroyed by the Scourge. Although some materials describe them as being just as xenophobic and evil as the Qiraji, the entirety of player interaction with living Nerubians is friendly. They also abandoned the worship of C'Thun on the basis that it "makes as much sense as a fly caught in a web worshiping the spider who is about to devour him". Mists of Pandaria introduced the mantid, a sister race to the Aqir, who served another Old God, Y'Shaarj; they also have a particular breed of insect called the kunchong, house-sized bugs with scythe-like arms. One kunchong uses its bulk to bash down one of the gates in the Serpent's Spine, the game's equivalent to the Great Wall of China, while an even bigger one smashes a huge hole in the wall itself. |

Universal Monsters: In book 1, shortly after meeting Dr. Dunn, Bob comes under attack by a swarm of oversized ticks. Devin Chavarria, who's becoming a vampire courtesy of Dracula, later claims to have sent them; it ultimately turns out she was lying and they were actually a shapeshifted Dracula (as revealed when more giant ticks later turn up in his base of operations and then turn back into him when Captain Bob starts smashing them). | |

Monster Hunter Online: Lightenna is a truck-sized Neopteron exclusive to the Chinese-only MMO Monster Hunter Online that resembles a mix between a grasshopper and a beetle with its big horn. What's notable about it, however, are its wings. It doesn't resemble a grasshopper for nothing; when it rubs its wings together, it can generate an electromagnetic charge, which it can use to generate barriers and charge Hunters, changing who its positive and negatively charged thunder shots will target. The Poikilos subspecies, on the other hand, ditches this gimmick and instead generates Dragon energy using its wings. | |

The Keys Stand Alone: The Soft World: Encountered by the four in Gothmarik Citadel. Specifically, giant centipedes — a whole roomful of the nasty things, swarming around a treasure chest. ("Oh GOD, it's like a fuckin' ocean of legs! I'm gonna have crawly things in me nightmares forever!") As the four are Actual Pacifists and squashing them isn't an option (thereby defying this trope), George turns into a brass dragon and puts them to sleep so the others can move them aside. | |

Resident Evil: The series liked to play this by having giant snakes, tarantulas, and a Black Tiger... a Giant Spider that Capcom specifically redesigned from Resident Evil (Remake) on so it looks like an Australian funnelweb to make Chris or Jill shit themselves. Drain Deimos and Brain Suckers (giant fleas) in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and Reapers (giant bipedal roaches) in Resident Evil 5. In Resident Evil 6, according to the designers, all of the "combat mutations" for the J'avo are based on this; mantis-like sickle-claws, legs being replaced by spider-legs or the body of a giant moth, armor-plating based on clumps of sea lice, Combat Tentacles based on the body of a silkworm, replacing the head with a monstrous stag beetle or a cluster of three cicadas or the abdomens of two bees... Ironically, most of the "Complete Mutations" that pop out of chryssalids aren't insect-based, except for the one that turns the J'avo into a sentient swarm of giant bees. |

Many of the native alien creatures in Civilization: Beyond Earth resemble giant bugs. Wolf Beetles are the size of Terran wolves and exhibit similar pack behaviours. Drones are wasps that are bigger than men. Raptor Bugs are even larger, the size of horses, and colonies following the Harmony affinity can breed and train them to use as mounts.

Factorio has the creatively titled bugs, which come in a variety of sizes, none of which are smaller than a man. The largest bugs are the size of a dump truck and can shrug off high-explosive rockets and flame attacks. Tiered walls, turret rings, and possibly ramming trains riding in circles around the base are necessary to prevent massed bug attacks from breaching into your factories and wreaking havoc with the delicate machinery. Bugs are made aggressive by pollution, so creating low-pollution factories inside forests can prevent them from attacking. | |

Overland: The game’s enemies consist of hostile, alien-like creatures known colloquially as “Bugs�. They come in many shapes and varieties, but generally appear large, black and blocky with colorful tendrils protruding out of their bodies. | |

Chrysalis (RinoZ) has giant ants as the protagonists. Specifically, Anthony gets the chance to Reincarnate in Another World as a monster ant, and proceeds to track down his colony and uplift them to approximately human intelligence. The hatchlings are about a metre long, but they can grow 50% larger each time they evolve to a higher tier; Anthony is soon the size of a minibus. They prefer not to pick fights with anyone who doesn't attack them first, though. | |

In Resident Evil 6, according to the designers, all of the "combat mutations" for the J'avo are based on this; mantis-like sickle-claws, legs being replaced by spider-legs or the body of a giant moth, armor-plating based on clumps of sea lice, Combat Tentacles based on the body of a silkworm, replacing the head with a monstrous stag beetle or a cluster of three cicadas or the abdomens of two bees... Ironically, most of the "Complete Mutations" that pop out of chryssalids aren't insect-based, except for the one that turns the J'avo into a sentient swarm of giant bees. | |

In the alien dimension Sarah, Annie, Artie, James, and Mark end up in at the end of Imaginary Numbers, there are train-sized centipedes and millipedes that fly through the sky, and a giant Slaying Mantis and Giant Spiders show up after dark. Antimony and Sarah speculate on how they manage to avoid the Square-Cube Law, theorizing that they have lungs instead of tracheae, like Earth insects do. |

Conker's Bad Fur Day: Large, red-colored dung beetles inhabit the excremental mountain that is located in the east side of the Windy area, including the Poo Cabin and the inner mountain that makes up for the Sloprano area. Some of them are jerks (the first four have to be killed because they won't let Conker move onto the mountain or even the alternate path that leads to the Barn Boys area), but most are actually friendly; one of them asks you to defeat the Great Mighty Poo, who's been eating them one by one and terrorizing the survivors. | |

Marvel Universe: Annihilation: The footsoldiers of the Wave are giant bugs from the Negative Zone, raging from human-sized, to kaiju sized. Not surprising that after everything is over, Richard Rider has a serious hatred for bugs. Ant-Man: Ant telepathy plus the ability to drastically shrink and grow things makes the control of gigantic insects one of Ant-Man's tricks of the trade. |

Super Mario Bros. 2: Hoopsters are giant labybugs that constantly clamber up and down trees and vines. They're especially prevalent in 5-2 and 6-3, where they impede the quartets' attempts to climb up vines. They're generally harmless when they are below the player, but cause damage when they climb down from above. They move quicker when Mario and friends are nearby, who have to jump to another vine to avoid the Hoopster. | |

Monster Hunter 4: The Seltas is a speedy large Neopteron who rams things with his horn; he can also shoot balls of water that reduce your defense. The Seltas Queen, on the other hand, is the Seltas' tank-like female counterpart, who likes to burrow, charge like a Tigrex, and can perform a devastating charged water blast. The Seltas Queen calls Seltas as her minion during battle. He can mount her and shoot Stamina-sapping water blasts like a rotary turret, and his wings allow the very heavy Seltas Queen to fly. Unfortunately for the poor Seltas, the Queen isn't too grateful for his help, as she'll slam him down onto the ground and eat him when she starts running low on stamina, then just call in another one. The two-horned Desert Seltas in 4 Ultimate has it even worse, as the Queen blasts him so hard at the pesky Hunters that he freaking explodes... upon which she'll just yank another Desert Seltas out of nowhere. Notably, their design and concept invokes the image of a Combining Mecha as well as that of a giant bug, which is also reflected in the armors you can craft with their materials. Starting from this game, you can also use one, as part of a weapon, no less! The Insect Glaive is a staff-like weapon that allows you to jump super high in the air, something only one other weapon is capable of (the Lance, and only during its Dash Attack.) However, the other half of the weapon is the Kinsect, a roughly-coconut-sized insect that resides on your arm. You can command it to fly and bite monsters to leech "extracts" from them. Drinking the "extracts" the Kinsect brings back gives you several boost, up to and including boosts to Affinity, a different standard attack chain, the ability to ignore weak monster roars, immunity to some types of knockbacks, and restoring a bit of health. They start out as the weak Mauldrone or Culldrone, but by feeding them Jellies, Ambrosias, and assorted monster parts and materials, you can upgrade their stats and elemental powers to your liking. |

The Stormlight Archive: Virtually all wildlife in the world of Roshar is insectoid or crustacean. This is because Roshar gets one of the hypercane-like highstorms every few days, so only things that can weather repeated scourings can survive. Some of them are Kaiju sized or even big enough to be mistaken for islands. According to Word of God and Arcanum Unbounded they dodge the Square-Cube Law through a combination of lighter gravity, higher oxygen content, and magic. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Numerous giant insects have appeared over the years, including bees, wasps, and ticks, as well as creatures like the manscorpion (a race of Scorpion People) and the formians, a race of Law-aligned Outsiders in the form of human-sized ants. Dark Sun: The thri-kreen are a desert-dwelling nomadic race of mantis-men. Many of them have psionic abilities. The Hivebrood are a version from Basic/Expert/etc D&D which doubles as The Virus. Araneas are giant (4ft long, 2ft wide) spiders originally introduced in Mystara. They're fully sapient, smarter than the average human, naturally adept at magic, and therianthrope-style shapeshifters, with a single inherent humanoid form as well as a natural spider form. Also, they're not Always Chaotic Evil but typically Neutral, admittedly tending towards being arrogant, manipulative jerkasses. In fact, they're an official player race in the Red Steel subsetting. Umber hulks are towering beetle monsters whose hulking build and powerful arms are backed up by a magical confusion gaze. Ankhegs are large burrowing insects that look a bit like giant rove beetles and are able to spew acid from their mandibles. Gloomwings are giant predatory moths from the Plane of Shadow with swirling hypnotic patterns on their wings. Their caterpillars, known as Tenebrous Worms, are even bigger and more ferocious than them, possessing venomous quills composed of a shadowy substance. Epic Level Handbook: Vermiurges resemble dragonfly-winged scorpions in the same size range as giants. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: The first game in the series introduces Gohma, which would go on to grow into a family of boss monsters with a large eye as their weakness; in some games (such as Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess), there are mook versions as well. With one exception, all of them are Giant Spiders. The outlier is the incarnation in The Wind Waker, as there it's a large centipede that inhabits the lava beneath the top of Dragon Roost Island, and serves as the King Mook version of the Magtail. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link: Boons are flies large enough to fly while carrying around good-sized rocks. Dealers are Giant Spiders around Link's size. Geldarms are centipedes considerably longer than Link is tall. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: The game introduces Mothula, a very dangerous large moth that serves as the boss of Skull Woods, and has since appeared in later games (including mook versions in The Wind Waker. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask: There's both a dragonfly mook with an electrified tail in the Bubblegloop Swamp region at the south, and a Dual Boss of centipedes (Twinmold) in Stone Tower Temple. For the latter, it's recommended to use the Giant's Mask to attack the weak points (heads and tails) more easily. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: The light stolen to the guardian spirits has to be retrieved by killing electric, luminiscent Shadow Bugs. Their queen is the Twilit Bloat, found in Lake Hylia. The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Stagnox is a gigantic stag beetle that charges at Link during battle, though its abdomen can be hurt. In the first phase, it's necessary to remove the surrounding poison from the abdomen; in the second phase, stunning it requires hitting the head with an explosive instead. The Legendof Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom has winged Gibdo variants that resemble demonic moths, and Queen Gibdo is clearly an insectoid behemoth. |

Banjo-Kazooie: The first game features Tickers (large pink termites), Buzzbombs (large yellow dragonflies) and Scabbies (large, rounded flying scarabs colored black and yellow). The Tickers can be found in Mumbo's Mountain and the Christmas tree of Freezeezy Peak, the Buzzbombs appear in Bubblegloop Swamp and the autumn period of Click Clock Wood, the Scabbies appear in Gobi's Valley, and all three of them roam the entrances to their respective levels in Gruntilda's Lair. Click Clock Wood also has the Zubbas, which fall under Wicked Wasps. | |

Killer Species: Book 3 introduces the Blood Jackets, a hybrid species of baldface hornet and vampire bat, made to target and kill humans. They're about as big as the normal bats, and are very dangerous to those they attack... though the vast genetic differences result in them being relatively and naturally short-lived. | |

Fallout: As a result of the setting being heavily inspired by the motifs and aesthetics of Atom Punk science fiction from the fifties, the game world is crawling with a wide variety of insects and other arthropods turned gigantic by exposure to radiation, including two-foot-long Radroaches, Radscorpions that grow upwards of six feet long, Giant Ants, some of which breathe fire and others of which fly, Bloodbugs, who are giant mosquitoes that suck your blood and spit it back at you, and Stingwings, scorpionflies the size of birds of prey. A quest in Fallout 3 involving said fire breathing ants reveals they were given this ability by a scientist who was attempting to return them to a normal size. Naturally, things went horribly wrong. One of the worst of them is the Legendary Bloatfly in Fallout: New Vegas: Old World Blues, a simple Bloatfly — one of the weakest enemies in the games — the size of Beelzebub with a Sickly Green Glow around it that hits harder than some of the toughest enemies in the games. Cazadores break from the pattern somewhat: instead of being nuclear mutants, they originated as tarantula hawk wasps who were genetically engineered to grow to huge sizes by a Mad Scientist with nothing better to do. A number of Giant Enemy Crabs show up as well, such as the series-wide Mirelurks, as well as the truck-sized Hermit Crabs and two-story-tall Fog Crawlers from the Fallout 4 expansion Far Harbour. Fittingly, these tend to be the biggest creepy crawlies in the games they appear in. |

FreeSpace: The bug-like Shivans overlap with Insectoid Aliens. They are intelligent and possess extremely advanced technology, and their agility and strength means they don't so much creep and crawl as leap, smash, and throw armored soldiers around like toy dolls.

Araneas are giant (4ft long, 2ft wide) spiders originally introduced in Mystara. They're fully sapient, smarter than the average human, naturally adept at magic, and therianthrope-style shapeshifters, with a single inherent humanoid form as well as a natural spider form. Also, they're not Always Chaotic Evil but typically Neutral, admittedly tending towards being arrogant, manipulative jerkasses. In fact, they're an official player race in the Red Steel subsetting. | |

The World of Kong: A Natural History of Skull Island talks about how the creatures encountered on Skull Island came to exist. One notable example are the giant worms that ate 2 crew members. These disgusting things were originally parasites found in dinosaurs who either died near the sulphuric hot springs on the island or pooped in there. The parasitic worms from the digestive track were well adapted to living in the nutrient rich pools and grew to enormous size. Their new size allowed these vermin to expand their carnivorous menu, as they're no longer restricted to living inside a dinosaurs gut. | |

A Beginner's Guide to the End of the Universe: Some of the early void beasts that the Everyman fights are a giant void fly and a large void cockroach, each about the same size as he is. They are fairly weak foes, on the whole — the fly on briefly threatens him due to his inexperience and lack of good gear, while the cockroach is swiftly beheaded before being able to inflict any damage. Later, the Everyman is attacked by a humongous void wasp several times larger than the tank he's hiding in at the time, which proves a much more dangerous opponent. |

Super Mario Bros.: Some of the enemies in the series games appear to be giant insects. Mario Bros.: Fighter Fly is a large insect enemy that starts roaming the playable area from Stage 6 onwards. It moves by making short leaps, meaning that Mario and Luigi have to time when to hit their standing floor from below in order to stun it. It returns in Super Mario Bros. Special and Super Mario Land, while a Mystery Mushroom costume based on it can be unlocked in Super Mario Maker. Super Mario Bros. introduces the Buzzy Beetles, which resemble reptilian beetles that act like Koopas, but cannot be killed with fireballs. These enemies only appear in a few worlds during a normal playthrough, but replace the Goombas in all worlds during the New Game Plus. Super Mario Bros. 2: Hoopsters are giant labybugs that constantly clamber up and down trees and vines. They're especially prevalent in 5-2 and 6-3, where they impede the quartets' attempts to climb up vines. They're generally harmless when they are below the player, but cause damage when they climb down from above. They move quicker when Mario and friends are nearby, who have to jump to another vine to avoid the Hoopster. Super Mario World introduces the Wigglers, which are giant yellow caterpillars that will become angry (and turn red) if stomped on. Fireballs don't kill them either. Defeating them requires either throwing a strong object at them, or using an Invincibility Power-Up. Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins has an ant species known as Antotto. These are large-sized ants that can be found in Tree Zone and Macro Zone; those of the former simply walk around, but in the latter world special variants can be found: Some have spikes on their bodies, some dig with shovels to throw dirt balls at Mario, and some shoot pellets with a cannon in their heads. A successor species called Ant Trooper appears later in Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario Maker 2. Super Mario Galaxy has the Mandibugs and Flipbugs. The former are giant beetles that charge at either Mario/Luigi and can only be killed with a Ground Pound, due to them having a large star on their backs. The latter are cowardly insects that will run away if they see Mario/Luigi in normal form (and falling over if they get too close), but will chase them is they see them in bee form. Super Mario 3D Land: The game marks the debut of Biddybuds and Stingbies. Biddybuds are ladybug-like mooks that walk in a specific pattern; a flying version known as Para-biddybud is also present. The Stingby is a Bee Afraid version that flies towards Mario when he's in its vicinity; it returns in Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario Maker 2. Super Mario Odyssey: The Urban Stingby is a mosquito relative of the Stingby, and comes in two forms: Larval and adult. They attack by charging at Mario and exploding when hitting him or a solid wall. |

In addition to multiple varieties of giant spiders which are about knee height to a player character, RuneScape also has Kalrag, which is a spider much bigger than the human player character (and surrounded by the smaller giant spiders; that portion of the relevant quest is not good for arachnophobics), as well as several forms of giant cockroach, and some giant beetles called kalphite, which range from workers the size of the aforementioned giant spiders, to the building sized Kalphite Queen. | |

Chip's Challenge has yellow-colored bugs (the exact species isn't confirmed, but their sprites are based on bumblebees so they're likely that) which walk around walled areas in a counterclockwise pattern. Like all mooks present in the game, they're as large as Chip and move as fast as he does, so dealing with them isn't always an easy task. These bugs also appear frequently in all fan sequels, but the official sequel Chip's Challenge 2 replaces them with orange-colored ants, which retain the same behavior. | |

On her second day, an even bigger scorpion chases her into Goodpsprings, requiring a few people to put it down. On her third day, she hears of Cazadors, giant tarantula hawk-wasps that have infested the road north of the town. Sunny warns that their venom is not something you want to be hit with, considering they were capable of downing a full grown man before they mutated. | |

Dragon's Crown: The Doom Beetle boss is a monstrous beetle more than twice the size of your characters. It's also the adult stage of human-sized giant Worms that had been mutated by magic, so failing to kill these Worms before they emerge from their cocoons during the boss battle will make you fight even more Doom Beetles. However, there's one good thing about these Giant Worms: Their meat apparently makes for good eating, to the point that in the Treasure Art where you collect Worm cocoon sample for some researchers, adventurers specifically mention the giant worms as a convenient source of protein after the inevitable happens and the giant worms escaped into the wild and began breeding unchecked. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Giant spiders are a common enemy creature in several games in the series. They are often venomous and are capable of trapping human-sized prey in their webs (and in one case, even a woolly mammoth). Land Dreughs appear in several games, and are large, vicious, humanoid crabs. They are a temporary form of the typical aquatic Dreugh (who more closely resemble humanoid octopi), and come onto land to breed. They possess a natural shock attack and have been known to cocoon their victims to serve as food for their young. Morrowind has the Kwama family of creatures, ranging from the grub-like Kwama Foragers to the adolescent wood louse-like Scrib, to the larger Kwama Workers, Warriors, and Queens. They lay eggs which are a staple of the Dunmeri diet. Shalks are a large black beetle with natural fire magic abilities. Skyrim has Chaurus, which are large, corrosive acid spitting, subterranean insects often found domesticated by the Falmer, who use Chaurus chitin to craft weapons and armor. Like a cicada, when a Chaurus reaches the end of its life cycle, its body gives birth to a Chaurus Hunter, which is a more dangerous winged variety. |

Half the characters of Starship are Big Creepy Crawlies, who implant their eggs in mammals and gladly give their lives for the hive and their Overqueen... and they're (mostly) good guys. The protagonist is a bug named Bug who talks and acts like he just walked out of a Disney movie, and eventually the audiences gets to see a small Bug War where both sides' POV is clearly shown: "OMG, these things are disgusting and gross! We've gotta destroy 'em before they destroy us!" | |

Pokémon: The franchise has a large number of Mons that are based off of insects or arachnids, and all of them are huge compared to those found in real life. This is quite typical of the in-game Bug-type. The absolute smallest member of this group is Joltik, a 4-inch-long tick. More common Bug mons like Caterpie tend to be around the size of small dog. The largest? Scolipede, an eight-foot tall, 442 lb., roaring centipede! Pokémon Sun and Moon have UB-02 Beauty Pheromosa and UB-02 Absorption Buzzwole; the former is a Statuesque Stunner of a roach woman while the later is a massive mosquito man with a body that puts Superman to shame. They are not to be trifled with. And none of those hold a candle to the over 200' long Gigantimax Centiskorch in Pokémon Sword and Shield, whose size and raw heat can destabilize air currents. |

Godzilla: Rodan actually begins with giant dragonfly nymphs known as Meganulon menacing the humans before the titular pterosaur shows up. The Meganulon would later appear in Godzilla vs. Megaguirus, in both nymph and winged imago form (known as Meganula), before Godzilla faces off against the eponymous Meganulon queen. Son of Godzilla introduces Kamacuras, a giant mutant mantis who shows up from time to time as the Magikarp of Kaiju, as well as the Giant Spider Kumonga. The Return of Godzilla has a type of giant sea lice known as Shockirus, which were mutated by feeding on Godzilla's radioactive blood. At five feet long, they were certainly large enough to be a threat to humans, even if not quite Kaiju-sized. And there's Mothra, probably the most popular insect Kaiju out there. And Mothra's evil twin Battra, Megaguirus the demonic dragonfly, Megalon the drill-armed stag beetle, Ebirah the rock-throwing red shrimp, and Ganimes the mutated rock crabs (as you can probably see, Godzilla and co. have certainly run the gamut for giant arthropod diversity). The unmade sequel to Godzilla (1998) would have involved Godzilla fighting off a horde of giant mutant termites, led by a gigantic winged queen dubbed the "Queen Bitch". Godzilla (2014): The "MUTOs" resemble large insects. Additionally, the Teaser Trailer Monster (a monster from a trailer but which never actually appeared in the movie) resembles a gigantic centipede or a tardigrade. Seen briefly in Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) is a kaiju known as Scylla that resembles a six-legged Giant Spider with a squid face, as well as a Freeze-Frame Bonus of a Giant Spider nesting in the walls inside Mothra's temple at the beginning. As Kong is running across the lava fields in the Hollow Earth during Godzilla vs. Kong, he disturbs numerous crab-like creatures (dubbed "Rock Critters" in concept art) that were hiding amongst the crags. They're small in comparison to Kong, but concept art shows they're about the size of a bus. |

Death & the Family: The Insect Queen's bug minions are larger-than-a-human, mutated ants and wasps. Superman: In an issue of Kryptonite Nevermore, Superman faces off against two rhino-sized ants. After the fight Superman notes that their size would have doomed them soon anyway. The Jungle Line reveals that one of the creatures which inhabited Krypton's Scarlet Jungle was an anaconda-sized, ant-headed green caterpillar. Mary Marvel 1945: In issue #5, the titular heroine travels to a hidden valley populated by giant flowers and insects. Wasps are larger than eagles, butterflies and bees can be ridden by normal-sized humans, aphids are milked like cows, and a Mary's friend is almost eaten by a monstrous caterpillar. Terra: The Illumi-Mites are a subterranean race who look like large flying bugs, about a foot long. Atlee is friends with their prince K'a. Tomahawk: In #99, Tomahawk and his Rangers battle Chief Cobweb: a Native American who can speak to and control insects and arachnids and has access to variety of giant version a hornet, a firefly and a Giant Spider. |

Reemus, of The Several Journeys of Reemus, tends to deal with these guys, which makes the fact that he's not quite as famous or well-respected as his dragonslayer brother just a bit nonsensical, since Reemus can and sometimes does take out entire colonies of giant beasties in his line of work, while his brother usually only gets one at a time. | |

Magic: The Gathering: Several Insect creatures fall under this — many reach and exceed the size of oxen. Crash of Rhino Beetles depicts a stampeding herd of beetles over twice as tall as trees. The Drudge Beetle is an insect large enough to be used as a beast of burden. The Giant Adephage is a monstrously large beetle shown crawling over the ruins of a city. The Hawkeater Moth is not as large as the game's other examples, but still big enough to prey on hunting birds. The krotiqs of Tarkir are centipede-like creatures of absurd size. Beasts such as Ambush Krotiq and Segmented Krotiq dwarfsbeasts that haul full-sized forts around and can prey on dragons. The Lithophage is an insect so huge that it consumes mountains. The Moonwing Moth is so big that the birds flying alongside it look like barely more than bugs themselves. |

The Crimson Court expansion adds the Bloodsuckers, which are vampires styled after mosquitoes, who look vaguely humanoid at first but will drop any pretense of humanity and become mutated, bug-like monstrosities at their first taste of blood. | |

Werewolf: The Forsaken: The Nidmuzug, or, more plainly, the Unclean. Humans who ate food contaminated by the spiritual taint that all Nidmuzugs emit and found themselves turning into werecockroaches. Their hybrid form is a giant, humanoid cockroach that can have a poisonous bite or claw attack. Their "beast form" is a swarm of hundreds of cockroaches, all controlled by a single mind. Interestingly, they come off as quite miserable rather than scary. They lose absolutely none of their humanity in the whole Body Horror process, and they can't live among humans since light hurts their eyes. The elders eventually become estranged from their human sides, but given the general misery that is their existence, it seems more like Unclean who survive to that point used the logic of "You know what? Fuck you, I am a monster!" Then there's the more conventional creepies, like the Azlu, or Spider Hosts. They're spiritual parasites who infiltrate human bodies, consume the brain, and turn the body into a puppet. They can turn into giant spiders at will, and are almost singularly dedicated to strengthening the barrier between Earth and the Hisil... which you'd think would be a good thing, but with less traffic between Earth and the Hisil, things start to get spiritually barren on this side of existence, leading to general turmoil. |

The Legend of Zelda: The first game in the series introduces Gohma, which would go on to grow into a family of boss monsters with a large eye as their weakness; in some games (such as Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess), there are mook versions as well. With one exception, all of them are Giant Spiders. The outlier is the incarnation in The Wind Waker, as there it's a large centipede that inhabits the lava beneath the top of Dragon Roost Island, and serves as the King Mook version of the Magtail. | |

Ender's Game uses this with the bug-like species systematically killing the crew of a human starship because, aside from the queens, their own species doesn't have free will, and they just assumed we'd be the same way.

Warhammer: Dark Heresy: Yanth is a jungle-covered Death World home to a tremendous variety of insects, which range in size from ones that would pass unremarked in an Earth garden to others that can bat aside a heavy tank with ease. Warhammer 40,000: The original concept of the Tyranids was insects crossed with dinosaurs and while their look has developed more towards the latter they still retain a number of insectoid elements such as a Hive Mind, swarms, Queens and their six limbs. Catachan Devils are a species of gigantic centipede-like alien predators with scorpion claws and stingers. Warhammer: Age of Sigmar: Alarielle the Everqueen, Goddess of Life, rides into battle on the back of a Wardroth Beetle, a giant-sized combination of a stag beetle and a Hercules beetle. Warhammer Fantasy: The Forest Goblins frequently use giant spiders the size of St. Bernards as cavalry, as well as some the size of moving vans for their shamans and bosses to ride to war on. They also have Arachnarok Spiders, which carry catapults on their backs and are so big Games Workshop had to come up with a custom base for the model. |

Rodan actually begins with giant dragonfly nymphs known as Meganulon menacing the humans before the titular pterosaur shows up. The Meganulon would later appear in Godzilla vs. Megaguirus, in both nymph and winged imago form (known as Meganula), before Godzilla faces off against the eponymous Meganulon queen. | |

They Came From Beneath The Sea!: Aquatepillars are massive, multicolored sea slug-like creatures ranging from 10 feet long and 3 feet in diameter to 30 feet long and 12 feet in diameter. They are slow but relentless predators that attempt to slam into potential meals (aka, anything made of flesh) in order to paralyze them with the venomous hairs adorning their bodies before devouring their prey. They have voracious appetites and whilst capable of feeding on plantlife, they prefer flesh. The Primordials known as Bonellia Viridis Terribilis are literally spoonworms, a real-world aquatic invertebrate, grown large enough to feed on humans. The Gigantic Pillbugs are humanoid shaped and man-sized marine isopods. |

Minecraft: Giant arthropods are the second-most prevalent type of enemies after The Undead. The most common are the player-sized Giant Spiders, but there are also dog-sized cave spiders, chicken-sized bees, and cat-sized silverfishnote In real life, silverfish are around as long as fingernail. As an in-game category, they're united by their common weakness to weapons enchanted with Bane of Arthropods. | |

Doctor Who: The classic series has "The Web Planet" and "Planet of the Spiders", among others. The queen spider was larger than a double-decker bus, man... Eugh. "The Runaway Bride" has the Giant Spider Racnoss Empress. "Utopia" has Chantho, an extremely nice humanoid insect alien. Jack Harkness (unsurprisingly) flirts with her. "The Unicorn and the Wasp" has a human-sized alien wasp. When Donna says she ran into a giant wasp, she doesn't mean big, she means FLIPPING ENORMOUS! "Kill the Moon" has giant bacteria creatures, which look like spiders, on the Moon-egg. "Arachnids in the UK" has spiders that were descended from an improperly-disposed-of test subject, modified to live longer, which consequently grew huge by eating garbage. The smallest are the size of dinner plates. "It Takes You Away": The "antizone" between the two mirror-portals is home to flesh-moths the size of large rats, which eat any kind of meat they can get to. |

Super Mario Galaxy has the Mandibugs and Flipbugs. The former are giant beetles that charge at either Mario/Luigi and can only be killed with a Ground Pound, due to them having a large star on their backs. The latter are cowardly insects that will run away if they see Mario/Luigi in normal form (and falling over if they get too close), but will chase them is they see them in bee form. | |

Hunter × Hunter: The Chimera Ants are human-sized ants and extremely dangerous. By eating other creatures, a Chimera Ant queen can impart the characteristics of ingested creatures onto the next generation of Chimera Ants it gives birth to. To take advantage of the genes of a particular species, Chimera Ants have been known to feed until the fodder species is driven to extinction in its ecosystem. That means, most of Chimera Ants don't look like actual ants, they look more like humanoid mixed-animals. The Chimera Ant King and his three Royal Guards are the most powerful living beings of the world. And only one of them is killed in a battle, while the other three, including the King, are killed by the poison of the Miniature Rose, a genocide bomb. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Several of Weevil Underwood's monsters, most notably Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth and Insect Queen, are textbook examples of this trope. Naturally, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series had fun with this one. Other duelists in the franchise who specialized Insect Monsters were Ren from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and Uryu from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s. (Both were one-shot characters.) |

Later it's discovered that they are themselves delicious. | |

Beast Wars had Inferno show up in the second season for the Predacons. Beast form, giant ant. Robot form, giant ant-headed robot whose abdomen turned into a flamethrower. Best known for thinking he was actually an ant, referring to their ship (and at first, just his pod) as "the colony," and referring to Megatron as "my queen". A majority of the Predacons also took on insect or arthropod modes. | |

Monster Hunter 3 (Tri): Bnahabra are similar to Vespoids, but they can also spit a corrosive goop that lowers elemental resistance based on region. Later games toned it down to "just" paralysis. Altaroth are ant-like Neopterons that store items in their stretchy stomachs, then take it back to their nests and vomit it out like bees. Their bodies are even more fragile than most Neopterons; any lethal damage that isn't poison will splatter them. When their bellies are inflated, they'll drop an item upon being killed, depending on what's in them. In Rise, they may leave a corpse to carve, however. |

He spent most of it covered in huge millipedes. The kicker was an encounter with a giant millipede that promptly vomited even more millipedes on his head. So his daughter got herself a pet millipede. | |

The first two Sinjid games contained giant bugs as low to mid-level enemies. Battle Arena had the weakly Purple Critter and its stronger variants, the Metal-Tailed Moth and the Spirit Bug, while Shadow of the Warrior had the Poison Wasp, the first enemy to be found inside the Monster Portal. | |

Temtem has a few mons based on arthropods. For example, Scaravolt and Shaolant are a rhinocerous beetle and anthropomorphic ant, respectively, and they're both 1.5m tall, which is taller than most children. Arachnyte, a robotic spider, is 20cm (2/3 of a foot) taller than them. | |

Battleborn: There are the Swarmers which are bug-like creatures native to the planet of Ekkunar and the moon of Bliss. These indigenous enemies per their name are known for swarming in large numbers and being a general nuisance for the Battleborn. They come in two types. There's the regular type that is relatively small in size for a giant bug and easy to kill but capable of high damage especially in large numbers. Then there's the swollen type which are larger and tougher than their smaller counterparts but aren't as aggressive, relying instead on spawning tiny Swarmers to attack targets. | |

Terraria has many examples, from antlions (including the rarely seen flying life stage) to underground worms to giant bees and hornets, and terrifyingly large spiders. If you're lucky, you can even get the Honeyed Goggles from the Queen Bee boss, allowing the player to summon and ride a slightly smaller giant bee. | |

Transformers: Kickback, Bombshell, and Shrapnel are all Decepticons that can turn into insects. Beast Wars had Inferno show up in the second season for the Predacons. Beast form, giant ant. Robot form, giant ant-headed robot whose abdomen turned into a flamethrower. Best known for thinking he was actually an ant, referring to their ship (and at first, just his pod) as "the colony," and referring to Megatron as "my queen". A majority of the Predacons also took on insect or arthropod modes. Transformers: Prime: The Insecticons are back, and they're bigger and uglier than ever. |

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind has several of these, like the building-sized woodlice known as the Ohmu. While they can be unbelievably dangerous when provoked, they're usually quite docile and kindly, with the Ohmu being portrayed as extremely wise Gentle Giants, akin to terrestrial whales. | |

Starship Troopers: Robert A. Heinlein used such bugs as a metaphor for Communism. They have a Brain Caste of very smart individuals and the warriors are as smart as they need to be to fight effectively, but the workers are relatively mindless and instinct-driven. Which actually works pretty well as a metaphor for the USSR. | |
